- Branched alcohol alkoxylate surfactants are widely accepted as an alternative to APE surfactants.
- LUTENSOLTM XP a surfactant manufactured and sold by BASF comprising ethylates of alkyl polyethylene glycol ethers based on the C10-Guerbert alcohol
- BASF a surfactant manufactured and sold by BASF comprising ethylates of alkyl polyethylene glycol ethers based on the C10-Guerbert alcohol
- APE-free surfactants have good performance profiles in some selected applications, they are not ideal for a variety of applications which require low surfactant concentration, such as those requiring a concentrations less than 1 gram/Liter (g/L).
- g/L 1 gram/Liter
- Document WO2009/155187 discloses a cleaning composition comprising mid-range alkoxylates as cleaning alternatives for APE.
- linear surfactants show good oil-removing and emulsification performance due to close interfacial arrangement of hydrophobic chains.
- branched surfactants usually exhibit good wetting and penetration performance, but poor oil-removing performance compared to linear surfactants.
- This invention is to develop a new surfactant formulation, which comprises a branched alcohol alkoxylate surfactant and a primary alcohol ethoxylate surfactant. Compared with each individual component alone, the formulated surfactant exhibits better wetting and penetration performance than the branched surfactant when used alone, and better oil-removing performance than the linear surfactant when used alone.
- the invention is a non-aqueous composition which includes a branched nonionic surfactant of Formula (I) wherein x is an integer from 1 to about 11, y is an integer from 1 to about 20, R 1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms (i.e., C1-C3), and R 2 is a alkyl carbon chain having 4 to 6 carbon atoms (C4-C6).

- the branched nonionic surfactant is biodegradable (greater than 60 percent biodegradation within 28 days per OECD 301F), has low aquatic toxicity (EC 50 >10 mg/L), and is not a source of volatile organic compounds. These surfactants exhibit acceptable surface tension reduction, narrow gel range, excellent wetting and penetration in hard surface applications, and have low foaming properties.
- the composition comprises from 70 to 90 weight percent (wt%) of the branched nonionic surfactant, based on the weigh of the total composition.
- the composition comprises from 85 to 95 wt% of the branched nonionic surfactant.
- composition of the present disclosure also includes a primary alcohol ethoxylate of Formula (II).
- the primary alcohol ethoxylate is a linear alcohol ethoxylate wherein R 4 has ten to sixteen (C 10-16 ) carbon atoms and z is 3, 5, 7 or 9.
- R 4 can be a C 10-16 branched or linear alkyl.
- the non-aqueous composition comprises from 5 to 30 wt% of the primary alcohol ethoxylate, based on the weigh of the total composition.
- the non-aqueous composition comprises from 5 to 55 wt% of the primary alcohol ethoxylate.
- the non-aqueous composition comprises from 70 to 90 wt% of the branched nonionic surfactant of Formula (I) and from 5 to 30 wt% of the primary alcohol ethoxylate of Formula (II), based on the weigh of the total composition.
- the non-aqueous composition consists essentially of 70 to 90 wt% of the branched nonionic surfactant of Formula (I) and from 5 to 30 wt% of the primary alcohol ethoxylate of Formula (II), based on the weigh of the total composition.
- This disclosure further provides a surfactant solution comprising the non-aqueous composition at a concentration from 0.1 g/L to 2.5 g/L in water.
- the water is deionized water. Tap water or hard water are less preferred as their use may cause insolubility of the surfactants.
- the concentration is from 0.3 g/L to 0.7 g/L, and most preferably a concentration of 0.5 g/L.
- the surfactant solution may further comprise other additives, e.g., antioxidants, pigments, salts, alkali, enzymes, among others.
- additives e.g., antioxidants, pigments, salts, alkali, enzymes, among others.
- the surfactant solution has a critical micelle concentration of less than 350 ppm, preferably less than 200 ppm, and most preferably less than 160 ppm.
- the disclosed surfactant solution may be used in a wide variety of applications, especially hard surface cleaning, textile processing, and wetting of both hard and soft surfaces.
- the surfactant solution is particularly advantageous in applications that require a low concentration of surfactant solution, for example, as a scouring agent in textile pretreatment processes.
- the surfactant solution may be manufactured and sold as a concentrate.
- a typical concentrate is delivered to the end user who then dilutes the concentrate with water to produce a final working solution.
- the surfactant solution may be manufactured and sold as a concentrate comprising the 70 to 99 wt% of the non-aqueous composition in water.
- the surfactant composition is prepared by mixing the branched nonionic surfactant of Formula (I) with the primary alcohol ethoxylate of Formula (II) under agitation at 40°C for at least two hours, after which the surfactant composition is cooled to room temperature before use.
- Surfactant solutions of 0.5 g/L and 2.0 g/L are made by diluting the surfactant composition in deionized water.
- the wetting/penetration property of a surfactant is defined as the length of time a surfactant solution takes to wet/penetrate a cotton greige.
- One liter surfactant solutions of both 0.5 g/L and 2.0 g/L are prepared and placed in individual cups.
- the cotton griege is placed on the surface of the surfactant solution.
- the wet time is the time it takes the cotton griege to become completely wet, i.e., the surface of the cotton griege is covered by water according to visual inspection.
- the penetrating time is the time it takes for the cotton griege to sink below the surface of the surfactant solution. Typically, the times are measured in seconds (s).
- Nonionic surfactants typically have low alkali resistant capabilities which limit the application of surfactants in alkaline conditions, such as in textile processes.
- Alkali tolerance is determined by preparing a series of sodium hydroxide aqueous solutions of different concentrations, e.g., 20 g/L, 30 g/L, 40 g/L and 60 g/L.
- the surfactant composition is dissolved in the sodium hydroxide solution under agitation. The solutions are incubated for two hours and the appearance is the solution is subsequently observed. If after two hours the solution remains clear, then it is known the surfactant composition can be used at this alkaline concentration. If, however, the solution is turbid or phase separation occurs, then the surfactant composition cannot tolerate such alkaline concentrations.
- Emulsification is another important criterion to evaluate the performance of surfactant compositions.
- a surfactant solution of 1 g/L is prepared. 20 milliliters (mL) of the surfactant solution and 20 mL of liquid paraffin are combined in a 100 mL cylinder in a water bath at 34°C for 1 minute. The cylinder is shaken up and down 10 times and is let to stand for 1 minute. The shaking step is repeated 5 times after which the 10 mL separation time is recorded. The longer the time to separate indicates greater emulsification ability.
- CMC Critical Micelle Concentration
- Machine oil stained fabrics are prepared by dipping polyester fabrics into a staining oil material and allowed to dry for 1 minute at 180°C. The stained fabric is placed in 100 mL of surfactant solution of 1 g/L or 2 g/L at 100C for 40 minutes. The fabric is then rinsed with water and allowed to dry. Visual inspection of the stained fabric is used to indicate the oil removing properties.
- BNS branched nonionic surfactant
- PAE primary alcohol ethoxylate
- BNS-6 branched nonionic surfactant used below, BNS-6, has a chemical structure of Formula (I) wherein R 1 is ethyl, R 2 is butyl, x is 5, and y is 6.
- the primary alcohol ethoxylates used below are PAE-7 which has 7 repeating units of ethoxylate and PAE-9 which has 9 repeating units of ethoxylate.
- branched nonionic surfactants used in the inventive examples all have a chemical structure of Formula (I) wherein R 1 is ethyl, R 2 is butyl, x is 5, and y is either 3 (BNS-3), 6 (BNS-6) or 9 (BNS-9).
- the primary alcohol ethoxylates used below are of Formula (II) in which PAE-7 has 7 repeating units of ethoxylate and PAE-9 has 9 repeating units of ethoxylate.
- XL-50 and XP-90 refers to LUTENSOLTM XL and XP which are commercially available from BASF.
- LUTENSOLTM XP and XL are ethoxylates and alkoxylates, respectively, based on a C 10 Guerbet alcohol.
- Table 3 displays the data for inventive example 1 compared to comparative samples (CS) 1 and 2.
- Inventive example 1 comprising BNS-3 and PAE-9 has faster wetting and penetration times (for both concentrations of 0.5 g/L and 2.0 g/L) than those of comparative sample 1 comprising 100% BNS-3 and comparative sample 2 comprising 100% PAE-9.
- Inventive example 1 has a much lower CMC value than CS-1 which results in the ability to use IE-1 as a surfactant at lower concentrations than that of CS-1.
- Table 4 compares comparative samples 3-5 to inventive example 2.
- IE-2 demonstrates faster wetting and penetration times than those of comparative samples 3 and 4.
- IE-2 does not have faster wetting and penetration times of CS-5 (100% LUTENSOL XP-90), however IE-2 is able to be used at much lower concentrations than CS-5 according to the CMC data.
- Figure 1 is a photograph of treated stained fabric with IE-2, CS-3, and CS-5. It is clear from visual inspection that IE-2 has greater oil/stain removing capabilities than CS-3 or CS-5.
- Table 5 compares inventive examples 3 and 4 to comparative samples 6, 4, 2 and 7.
- inventive examples 3 and 4 have faster wetting and penetration times than CS-6, CS-4, CS-2 and CS-7 for solutions of low concentration, 0.5 g/L.
- inventive examples 3 and 4 do not have faster wetting and penetration times for the solutions using a 2 g/L concentration than those of CS-6 and CS-7.
- the inventive examples have the advantage of much lower CMC values than CS-6 and CS-7 which allows the inventive examples to be used effectively at significantly lower concentrations.
